“In July, our area was getting hit with residential B&E and theft of HVAC units. A potential suspectsold a weed eater at a business and that ticket was located through LeadsOnline after searching for the same brand of weed eater that was stolen. Even though the serial number was not known, other criteria were used to make a positive ID on the stolen weed eater. This led to us being able to close multiple cases and charge the suspect for multiple larceny and B&E incidents.”
